6 Sacks in the first half. It's almost enough to make me feel bad for Browns fans.

Wow the browns really suck.
Heads up play by Aaron Smith there wrestling the ball away from Anderson on the ground.

If they were to play right now, who would win, the Michigan Wolverines or Cleveland Browns? Wow, how bad are the Browns?

Guys - all kidding aside, the Browns are a lot worse than I thought.

Yeah, I mean we all knew the Browns weren't going to be a great team this year, but this is REALLY bad...
Agreed -- very inconsistent, too.

I'd love to know what their plan is with Parker because so far I don't see one.{sigh}C'mon Parker.....................

A nice, long, and sustained drive would be excellent.

I agree. Other than a few flashes of brilliance, their O hasn't looked that great.

Just not sure about these choices:- Lots of screens to Parker who, lets be honest, is not known for his hands.- Low % plays on third and short- No attempt to control TOP (a.k.a. last few drives). That's gonna wear out the D quickly.Maybe it's just first game jitters.
The Browns are simply not ready to play. The QBs are not ready. Receivers drop passes. Defenders are not in position. The defense dropped a Ben pick on 3rd down on the drive where they got their FG. The only saving grace is that the Steelers' offense is shooting itself in the foot. Steelers' receivers are dropping passes, and the Browns are generating some pressure vs the Pittsburgh OL (which isn't a very good sign). You would think up by 3 scores, the Steelers' offense could relax and grind out some drives, but Ben is still running for his life way too much.
It'll be interesting to see how the Steelers' offense performs against an NFL-caliber team that is ready to play.

Browns are clearly in panic mode. Its obvious that not only was Charlie Frye not ready to play, but the coaching staff was unaware of this. A sure sign of disorganization is being put in a position where you change quarterbacks in the first half of week 1. They don't know what they are doing. Grantham seems to be the only one with a clue.
Very nice drive there by the Steeler offense. Matt Spaeth with the short TD.

I like Big Ben's numbers...how has he looked on the field?

I counted at least 4 drops from his receivers. Big Ben looks good.

Reed *still* putting kickoffs in the endzone. Where did that come from?

Quadzilla came with his A game.
Nice drive there by Cleveland. Winslow cleaned Ryan Clark's clock and Anthony Smith is in.

LOL at that idiot Clown FB doing a TD dance.
Hooray, we're only down by 18 now. 
That was a nice Winslow block on Clark. Winslow was big on that drive for them.

Yeah, FWP and moreso the running game has not impressed my, esp vs. a CLE run D.
If they we're playing a better D and the game was closer, I'd be uneasy from what I've seen for the run O. Everything else looks money. Sepulveda is a stud.
The just need to put the K-Train back their to open up some holes for FWP

Yep. Crennel has done nothing with this franchise to warrant being free of such speculation. He's in his third year, and getting blown out at home on opening day against the bitter rival. The question is at what point would they fire Crennel in the middle of the year? Would a 1-4 start get him canned? Or 2-6?

Man those Brownie fans don't play around. Whole 4th quarter to go and that stadium is about 15% full. Probably more Stiller fans there now than Brownie fans!!!
Davenport still looking like .
